Today a colleague was explaining a client's request to me and I had to struggle to focus on what it was because he is astoundingly beautiful. I'd honestly thought that didn't happen to me, at least with people I don't know so well, but yeah, his eyes were looking at me.
Totally taken though, and I am me after all, but still.
Now you know how I feel.

I'm just very amused at the thought of people thinking I'm female. The parrot can be very deceiving, apparently.

Aw none of that in here!

In reality, it's fairly rare that I even register on people's radar in that respect. So I kind of got used to it.

Don't tell me that you, too, have the slightly awkward dream of becoming the local crazy old cat lady. Pretty much every very passable and pleasantly smart female person I know keeps saying that and it drives me insane. You people are so precious and you don't even realise it.

Last month, I had a really bad fight with my single best friend (9 years of friendship, lost…). In the beginning I thought I'd come crawling back to him, taking all the blame for the fight and tolerate the lies he told to my mother. All this because I felt alone.
Thanks to the AP forums and especially to the members, Korobka, Epoida and Minus, I could realize that I am not alone in this world, and there are people who wants to chat with me (here or on skype).
Sincerely thanks for helping me, if not for you and this forums, I would have made a huge mistake in my life.
I know I have to be strong on my own, but sometimes I need a single friend to chat with, once again..THANKS !

As a passable and pleasant (I think) smart female I'd like to clarify I have no intention of becoming a cat lady. Hope it makes you feel better! ;D
Also, apparently I should get on this ap skype thing eventually …

Did you hack into my Skype conversation yesterday? I was just talking with one of my buddies here when you were brought up and he called you a she (and "Dyrish"). Seems a little more than coincidental you'd bring this up now, no? :ninja:

Wow, really? I had no idea you felt this way. Glad to know I'm being of some help. I haven't been using Skype very prolifically till last-last Saturday, and I've already played the therapist role for two other people. I guess I also shouldn't be too surprised at the same time, as it just goes to show again that this has become an incredibly tight knit group of members.
-
I had a girlfriend that would get really, REALLY jealous whenever i said a man was good looking but was allright when i said it about a woman. Also…wait, no. I won't talk about that xD
Wish girls are like this.

When a random person tells me their name in person, I forget the name 30secounds later. This leads to saving people's phone number with weird names(e:g bank lady, guy in seven eleven etc).
Funny thing, I can remember a friends or family member name for years but not just a random person.

I don´t want a therapist, I want a friend, just someone I can talk with and that prevents me from having a relapse.
-
Two?
And a word "therapist" sounds way too off. Most of the people dun need it, when they are talking to a friend.
-
That´s why I need a friend.
-
I meant both that when you are feeling down, you need friend, not a therapist. But also, when you talk to a friend you don't need to act as a therapist.

This is the first post on this page and so I have no idea about what the whole thing is about, but this post, all of it, I approve of.

Well, I am very happy that at least one person I know realises their worth. Unless the next thing you're going to tell me is that you have it all planned – just with dogs.
And, yes, you very much should join in on the Skype fun. The community, apart from some members, has been pretty quiet on that front for the longest time, but we seem to be hitting some sort of a breakthrough here. The members of the new generation are finding one another.

I… wow, this seems to be a more common occurrence than I thought. Please tell me it's the parrot and nothing else because good grief, lol. It doesn't disturb me, but what is it about not checking the PYP thread OR any of the other threads where I've publicly advertised my gender...
Also, I really need to get on the next call that you have with this another European guy and the US lady. I want my share of the skyping fun too, even though I always completely freeze when I have to talk to native speakers.

? Are parrots seen as feminine animals or something? If so, this is news to me. As you're surely aware, I'm quite big on them as well. Cockatoos, lorikeets, conures… I love 'em all.

Hmm? What's this, now? And why would someone as articulate as you fear talking to a native speaker? You can write circles around almost anyone in your age group. Also, sorry for the last response. I've been rather distracted the last several weeks…by Skype. xP
I dunno what's that btw.
I guess if you want to put it simply, a cat lady is someone who substitutes a husband or even just friends with her cats. Usually exaggerated to a VERY high number of cats in media.
-
Writing and oral speech production are two quite different things. I'm not as good a speaker as you might expect. :P
And in case you were wondering, no, I don't have a Finnish accent. It's a weird mixture of mainland European influences and upper middle class British English.
-
Still…I'm more than willing to bet that you can talk just fine. I've also been told of your accent. You can probably guess from who.
But yeah, what's this about "another European guy and the US lady"?
-
… never mind that part. I am trying to protect people's anonymity here.
-
Being able to say just "Happy Birthday :B " and nothing more to the woman that's been my heart's bane for years and years feels good. Empowering. I mean, in a few i'll be back to be the sentimental mess that i am in relationships but dammit i want to celebrate this even if it is only for a moment.
-
Im starting to feel no one cares about me. I've had numerous meltdowns and no one cared. I know its best that its that way isntead of people noticing to mock you but…

@Monkey:
I'm on your side against loverboy up there.
I can read, but this loverboy stuff is so stupid that it needs to stop. Especially when it was never anyone's purpose to begin with.

Things to seem to have become a little more bitter this year, for various reasons. I'm trying not to focus on it because there's not all that much I can do about it anyway, but it is sad. And of course, negativity leads to more negativity, so there's that as well.

Dunno! We've always had plenty of random drama. Something that is completely natural to occur when lots of people from various backgrounds gather in a community! You really can't and shouldn't expect it to always be flowers and honey and chocolate. AP is a continuously evolving community and every new active member adds another little element in it and another new opinion that someone will disagree/agree with. It's completely normal. Not like we like everyone we meet offline, right? xD So dunno why people get so uptight when someone doesn't like someone here. They are not obliged to and as long as it doesn't get too personal or invasive, it should all be good. Some people do want to hold some distance and anonymity/privacy intact and might get understandably defensive when someone tries to breach that line.

People can hate anyone they want, it's the passive aggressive commentary that sends people over the edge into pissing matches usually. When we can dislike people, but not make a big fucking deal about it, we've reached a good place.
Someone tell me about the skype thing… sometimes I am too lazy to make it to the boards and all I do is turn on skype and aim and irc... so very tired...
-
Oh by the way I meant because of stuff posted above me.

Come on~ We all know very well that passive aggressive commentary is not the only type of comments that sends people over the edge into pissing matches on AP. I remember once saying I find sleeping with my socks on gross (like scratching a blackboard kind of gross mostly) and a couple of people blew up on me and bitched and moaned and whined about it (while I laughed my ass off at how ridiculous the whole thing was). All that is needed is a couple of hot-heads, a couple of jokers and a couple of white-knights for an argument to be blown over proportions in AP :P

Honestly, in fairness, I would argue that 'smart people' pretty unfailingly tend to be at least one of the parties involved in any of the more notably heated exchanges.
